<p class="x_MsoNormal">My nephew’s BJ8 came with a boot full of mixed blessings from its PO. Amongst all the manuals and stuff were two boxes containing an oil cooler and mounting kit. NOS.(Actually, these items dated back quite a while…2 or 3 POs back).</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">So, he gave them to me as he wasn’t remotely interested in fitting them. I took them back to the UK and determined that I might fit the cooler “one day”. Well, as the car is up on a stand with the radiator out, it seems that the day may
have arrived. Minimal amount of work compared to having to do it from scratch? Now:-</p>
<ol start="1" type="1" style="margin-top:0cm">
<li class="x_MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm">For someone who lives in a temperate climate and who seldom goes all that fast in his Healey, how much benefit is there in a cooler?</li><li class="x_MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm">The Denis Welch brackets look pretty good. Fit onto the lower radiator mounts. Designed for their cooler but I think mine can be shoehorned in.</li></ol>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Has anyone tried these brackets?</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">How easy/hard to fit?</p>
<ol start="3" type="1" style="margin-top:0cm">
<li class="x_MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm">I will not be cutting any holes. The cooler would sit in front of the radiator in line with the lower mounts.
</li></ol>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Is it a waste of time to put the cooler in there without a dedicated hole?</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Will I gain as much heat by blocking some airflow to the radiator as I lose with the cooler?</p>
<ol start="4" type="1" style="margin-top:0cm">
<li class="x_MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm">Seems like an oil cooler may just be a waste of effort???</li></ol>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Any thoughts?</p>
